| 2 | ( | 6 | − | 1 2 | y | ) | = | - | 3 | ( | 2 | y | − | 1 | ) |
| Left side of the equation = | 2 | × | 6 | − | 2 | × | 1 2 | y |
| = | 12 | − | 1 | y |
| 12 | − | 1 | y | = | - | 3 | ( | 2 | y | − | 1 | ) |
| Right side of the equation = | - | 3 | × | 2 | y | + | 3 | × | 1 |
| = | - | 6 | y | + | 3 |
| 12 | − | 1 | y | = | - | 6 | y | + | 3 |
| - | 1 | y | + | 6 | y | = | 3 | − | 12 |
| 5 | y | = | 3 | − | 12 |
| 5 | y | = | - | 9 |
| y | = | - | 9 | ÷ | 5 |
| = | - | 9 | × | 1 5 |
| y | = | - | 9 5 |
| y | = | - 1.8 |
